How Do You Overcome Laziness And Dizziness When Working by EkenmaPeter(op): 2:12pm On May 17, 2021
How do you over come laziness and dizziness when working
Just as the topic stated , i will like us to share experience how you over come laziness and also dizziness when working on a client project, task or a pet project.

Laziness can be as a result of an easy task that you can implement in some minute or hours but took you 2 days to do, and dizziness is when you have to stay awake all night mostly for remote guys working for foreign client with different time zone.

How do you manage to balance sacrifice, discipline and commitment when working?

There is no magic formula.

Just take regular breaks.

I always take a 5 to 10 mins break after working for about an hour or 2.

This keeps your mind fresh and alert.

only if the work you doing is not interesting
Re: How Do You Overcome Laziness And Dizziness When Working by DualCore1:
These are just my suggestions

You can try the Pomodoro technique.

The author, Cal Newport has a book on deep work. Pomodoro and Deep work look like opposite concepts but with practice you could combine both, nicely.

Get a lot of rest and look out to work in places that value outcome over output and give you time for wellbeing and R & D

Space out routine activities (add sum fun stuff inbetween). Programming could get boring sometimes when you know exactly what you’re doing. Try to learn new things to add to your skillset. Challenge your code, refactor to improve performance without sacrificing readability for the next guy (or for yourself, 6 months later).

Get a buddy and peer program

Add the agile methodology to your workflow in as little a way as you can. You could use a Kanban board to track your progress and also give you an overview of whats ahead. Your progress will make you feel good about yourself and the overview of whats ahead will keep you interested in what you’re doing.

If you work for yourself and do projects for clients. At the start of a project, try scoping everything out (for the MVP at least) and divide them into weekly sprints from conception to delivery. You can use an online tool like Jira to scope your work out and even add your client so they can see exactly what you’re working on this week, what you did last week and what you will be doing in the coming weeks. Set very reasonable expectations for yourself. This system will help you stay accountable and transparent. Laziness doesn’t thrive where there is accountability and transparency.

Go out for walks.

Dont code for hours on end, from morning till night. That’s one way to get fired in some places. Your welbeing is as important to your team as it is to you. If you burn out, everybody suffers.

I deliberately left out coffee but if you’re curious, try Nappuccino.

Try a standing desk. It works for some people.

Stay hydrated. Its good for your health and it will make you get up often for bathroom breaks.

I was just going to write one or two sentences but err...sorry. Just pick up any of the suggestions you feel are worth trying.

Wishing everyone the best in their journey through code.

**please Google any unclear term.

shocked


For me, I make sure I don't eat early, and once i get to the office, I usually don't do carry over work, I will rather stay late at work and finish it than do carry over till the next day..... (Though you can't finish company's work, because if you do, no company will emoy you).


What I do to prevent dizziness and laziness is, I make sure once I come in as early as possible, even if its 5:00am i resume work, i pray first and start my work immediately....

Between the time I resumed, to around 12, I would have finished more than half of my work...

So between 2pm I am through with all, and 2:30pm I eat and wait for the little job that would come my way before I came it a day...

What causes laziness and dizziness is once you wat early for me, once I eat, debility set in immediately....

Just resign.

Then you can stay at home, sleep and laze about as much as you want without any fear or worry of feeling dizzy.

If you are lethargic and dizzy you may have an underlying health condition you need to treat. This is one of the symptoms of cancer especially cancer of the brain. Please take your health seriously.

Take a cup of coffee or alternatively you can take a sachet of the Nescafe 3 in 1

There was a time I was experiencing burnout and always having migraine headachesbfrom work. I started meditating for like 10 minutes in my car coupled with a quick 30 minutes nap in my car with the car AC on during break times and this has been a blessing for me. I am no more stressed out. Try it out. It just might work for you as well.
